Entity linking is one of the features offered by Azure AI Language, a collection of machine learning and AI algorithms in the cloud for developing intelligent applications that involve written language. Entity linking identifies and disambiguates the identity of entities found in text. For example, in the sentence "We went to Seattle last week.", the word "Seattle" would be identified, with a link to more information on Wikipedia.
This documentation contains the following types of articles:
